Our friends over at DolfansNYC.com got a scoop that the logo above may be the new logo for the team. They caution that the image is a rendering and that the final logo will not necessarily be that exact version. For the information on how they came to get the image, click over to DolfansNYC.com.

Beyond the marketing aspect, why do we need a new logo? I really like the one we have.

Re: Is this the new Dolphins logo?

Really just wish the team would go back to the one from the mid-80s/early-90s. Grey facemasks and everything. Classic, clean look... like what Buffalo did with theirs.

Not a fan of that logo.

Man, a part of me really would like to see a concept with some punch like the Seahawks just recently opted for.

Oregon's uniforms are amazing...I think Seattle have the best uniforms in the NFL. Love them.

They're color scheme isn't all that different from Miami's either. Wouldn't mind modeling ours after the Seahawks'.

I agree, the Seahawks took that whole Seattle Northwest tribal theme and made it work. Their jerseys are pretty cool. I'd love to see the Dolphins take some Miami South Florida concepts and incorporate them into the uniform, but like you said do it in a way that gives it some punch.

I was messing around with Photoshop, trying to alter the Seahawk one with our colors. But I'm with you man, I think it would be cool. In particular I want them to turn up the orange, like they did with the neon green on the Hawks uni's.

take some Miami South Florida concepts and incorporate them into the uniform

possibilities are endless there. they can all look like Tubbs & Crockett with pads.

Seattle did a great job with it, but I'm not sure orange would work as well as the neon.

Still, anything is better than the boring butt uniforms we have now.

Re: Is this the new Dolphins logo?

you guys are crazy. Really?? Lime Green?Tradition rules in the NFL. Seahawks uniforms are vomit.Oregon has no identity now because they've been seen in 50 different uniforms.

The best never change, or stay relatively similar (Bears, Packers, Colts, Dolphins, Bills, Niners, Lions)

Re: Is this the new Dolphins logo?

Was screwing around with various concepts I found online .... I cannot take credit for the actual logo designs, all I did was tweak the color schemes for the most part.

wow Rock I actually love those helmet concepts. That looks strong and streamline. Better than I expected.

Thanks ...

The more I messed around with them, the more I'm convinced we need to switch to something like that. The orange pops more off the helmet and the Dolphin gets a much needed re-design with streamlined contours.

Now that one I like. Keeps the history of the logo in tactic, while giving it some new flavor.

Yep. The 2nd one or 3rd one for sure. Those are sleak and you could do some cool stuff with the unis. Much like Seattle.

I'm all for change but I don't like that style of Dolphin in the least bit... I'd rather stick to what we have than change to that.

My thoughts exactly. I'm all for changing with the times and get modern. I'm kind of jealous of all the cool butt merch my Seahawks friends get.

Re: Is this the new Dolphins logo?

I like the first helmet. I think it would look even better if the orange sun was incorporated in a modern and cool way.

Good to hear, I think the growing sentiment among Dolphins fans is that they overwhelmingly wanted something fresh, something new. From what I've seen of the renderings out there, the logo should improve and give the team an updated look.

Re: Is this the new Dolphins logo? - To be revealed before Draft

as of right now, i am pretty bummed about changing the logo. hopefully it turns out alright, and i change my mind. I would like to see the color scheme changed a bit (i.e. something similar in seattle). Fingers crossed...
